    So one of the gyms closed and this gym did absorb most of theirs! We are in an area with probably some of the best cost of living and job availability in California. Yeah i plan to take her to the team evaluations at the other gym and check it out, my cousin’s daughter is there on their xcel...

    Yes, i’ve definitely seen coaches that can handle the large group and still coach well but unfortunately that is not the case here. my daughter will make basic mistakes over and over with zero corrections!! She is building bad habits and that makes me nervous for her in progressing.

    Curious what other gym programs look like for DP level 3. What is the size of gymnasts to coach ratio, how many hours a day/week do they train? Is there issues with gymnasts not getting corrections and doing stations without any monitoring?

    Gymnasts Backhand spring troubles

    My daughter is 8, and is training for DP level 3. She is really struggling with the backhand spring. It doesn’t seem like they practice enough during her regular practices and consistent strength training. Working with her at home on an air track, she collapses every time either both arms and...
